Girls get their pictures taken all the time with makeup on. How would a boy wearing makeup be "acting like an idiot"?

Shit like that is why they lost the war.

Because I'm sure his mom, who was right there with him, was just in on the prank, right?

Real men don't give a shit if other dudes want to wear make up. Who cares.

David that story is very close to mine, I had the chance to work for Tony at his school in the 1990s, I also had all my walls covered in Gwynn memorabilia and wore 19 as many of us did. I posted this originally over at the UTSD Forums in the tribute there, but thought many of you would love this story as well. Its…

I feel like an idiot for having a Will Clark poster on my wall as a kid.

Exactly....Dammit, I KNEW I shouldn't read this story while I was slicing an onion while my allergies were acting up.

Should have been you, Will Clark.

No lie, David — best story about Tony Gwynn I've read over the past day and a half. Everyone seems to want to convey the same message to us; everything you think you believe about Tony Gwynn is true. I'm grateful to be able to see the man through your 16 year old eyes, and I'm glad Deadspin took the time to publish…

I've managed to avoid reading the tributes because I was busy, but god damnit, I couldn't avoid this one. This was amazing, and it crushed me. Thank you. RIP Tony.

Surprise

Ya, from the age of two it only wanted to eat raw fish and it would swim all day long. It has been to the hospital many times for malnutrition and hypothermia now though. The doctors don't understand!

Oh come on, nobody in South Carolina shaves their beard. That's just ludicrous.

Was he trans-species? I fully plan on getting the operation to become a giraffe in the next few years, It would only be right for the DMV to allow me to take a picture of what I aspire to become...

They made my friend take off its dolphin costume too :(

So if I went to get my picture taken with a full beard and a full head of hair and then immediately after the picture was taken went home and shaved my head and beard I would be in violation of this policy?

I have no words to describe what i just saw... but i F*CKING LOVE IT!

Nope. In Le Mans, you want to be faster. Like speed metal.

There were also Ferraris reported to be on fire, but arson was not the cause.
